Description Usage Arguments References

Description

Broadband atmospheric transmissivity outlined in Hwang et al. (2013).

Usage

1
atmosTrans(Pa, Kt = 1, theta, W)

Arguments

Pa

numeric or Raster* object, atmospheric pressure (kPa).

Kt

numeric, turbidity coefficient, defaults to 1.0 for clean air (Allen et al., 1998).

theta

numeric or Raster* object, solar zenith angle over planar surfaces (radians).

W

numeric or Raster* object, water in the atmosphere (mm).
